Weekly Tip: Walk in Line - Stripe Wear

Hi Everyone,

On the runways, designers were mixing wide and thin stripes or pairing stripes with florals or zig-zac prints. 

Such combinations don't work for day-to-day looks. The key to wearing stripes in the real world is to always wear just one print matched with a solid.

For example, a vertically striped blouse looks great with white trousers or jeans. Vertically striped pants or skirts can make you look taller. For dresses, avoid horizontal stripes that widen your shape -- unless you have a boyish figure and need to create some curves.

 

Bold stripes can be intimidating—after all, no one wants to look like an umpire or a circus tent—but with some smart styling, they can be flattering. When paired with right pieces, stripes can really enhance your figure and keep you looking up-to-date.

Arabian Nights: Red Short Kurti and Harem Pajama

Happy Sunday Everyone! Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

 

Today I have paired my Aladdin Pajama popularly known as Harem Pajama ( it always reminds of Aladdin!! I use to love watching that show). I really like the look and feel of Harem Pajamas. These are very comfortable, airy and light. You can wear these pajamas in your office with a short kurti.

These are so comfortable that you can work wearing these the whole day.

I have to run and hunt for locations every weekend. Wearing flats help a lot and this one is one of my favorite. I just love the metallic details in it.

Weekly Tip: Think Pink

Hi Everyone!

I was going through Vogue's website and I really liked their article 'Think Pink' and then I thought of using this in my next weekly tip. 

Pink is the color most commonly associated with femininity, sensitivity, tenderness, childhood, and the romantic and we girls love it.   

So, think pink this autumn/winter. Instead of embellishment and color blocking with bold tones, go for shades of blush, rose and magenta in key pieces - sweaters, dresses, pants and skirts.

 If you do not want wear pink head-to-toe, pair the various hues of rose with classic separates in neutral tones of whites, ivories, stone, khakhis, greys, blacks and metallics.

 

Pink is especially natural in India. It reminds us of Rajasthani choli blouses and girly wedding lehengas and suits. 

I bought a pink Anarkali suit recently to attend wedding function of my cousin brother. I can't wait to show you that. I fall in love with that as soon as I saw it.

Sunny Afternoon: Summer Jacket and Blue Jean

Hi Everyone!

I have paired my white summer jacket with my blue jean and a white t-shirt. This is a very casual and everyday look. 

We normally wear denim Jean and t-shirt everyday and everywhere but if we add a jacket to it, we can convert the whole pairing into a more sophisticated and slick look. You can wear this look for a get together, casual meetings or for a lunch date ;)

This is another post from Kesroli, Rajasthan. The view from the terrace of our hotel was very relaxing. You can only see green wherever your eye goes.

Second Visit to WLFW SS14 - Amazing Show

Hi Everyone!

Today's blog post is on my second visit to Wills Lifestyle Fashion Week SS14. I got invites from Wills Lifestyle and the whole experience was exhilarating. I attended the Hi 5 show which showcased designs by Autre by Gautam Gupta, Niharika Sharma, Poonam Dubay, Rinku Sobti and The Next Episode by Shantanu Singh.

The whole show was incredible with loads of colorful designs, patterns and prints. Lets see what each designer's designs are like:

Starting from the first lineup by Autre by Gautam Gupta:

Boat neck dresses with abstract prints sailed through the ramp. Some of my own clicks are below:

And here comes the designer Gautam Gupta..

The next lineup was by designer Niharika Sharma:

Niharika gave the school stationary a colorful turn. She used Algebra prints and crayon motifs in her designs which were very interesting to watch.

One of my favorite out of all of these:

 The design, the color, the print in this outfit was amazing and the added wow factor were the shoes. I simply loved them.

Next was Poonam Dubay's lineup. She presented her blooming collection titled 'Desert Rose': 

Poonam's design had the Rajasthani grandeur at its peak with Saris, Angrakha and delicate Lehengas. Personally I loved all the designs by her. The designs were sophisticated Indian wear. Out of all of these, I loved the lehnga which Indrani Dasgupta wore:

Followed by was Rinku Sobti's collection. She used solid colors: Yellow, Pink and Green in her collection. She showed prominent necklines in dazzling colors:

Last but not the least was The Next Episode by Shantanu Singh:

Structured dresses and saris dazzled the ramp in bright hue.

All in all I had great fun and enjoyed the show. Being a fashion blogger it always gives you joy to witness new trends and fashion. 

I wore my white dress to the show and paired my yellow bag and belt with it.
